Great suggestion!



Hint wanted ...
**How do you make the rulers/squares etc. less slippery?
Please? and Thanks!
They make sandpaper dots just for this! They recommend NOT using them on silk and satin types of fabrics otherwise the dots might snag the fabric. I found them in my quilting section at Joann's
I've tried the sandpaper dots, also the clear rubbery dots.
Haven't liked them, as the sometimes make the ruler tippy, particularly around seams.

Any other suggestions?
